Learn to improve your photos with tips on composition and lighting from an industry professional.

In conjunction with OPL's Teen Photography Contest, hone your skills with photography tips from our Creation Specialist and Toronto-based artist, Anna Snyder. This workshop will focus on basic composition and lighting techniques to help take your images from good to great. Participants must bring their own camera (ex. DSLR, mirrorless, phone, tablet). Basic knowledge of camera operation is recommended.

The program will be conducted over the Zoom video platform and is for teens only. Library staff will email the Zoom link to all participants at least an hour before the program begins.

Participants are encouraged to submit their images to the Teen Photography Contest, but is not mandatory.
